Visual Anatomy & Physiology

by Frederic H. Martini, William C. Ober, Judi L. Nath

"A Visual Approach to Two-Semester A&P"
"Visual Anatomy & Physiology "combines a visual approach with a modular organization to deliver an easy-to-use and time-efficient book that uniquely meets the needs of today's students-without sacrificing the comprehensive coverage of A&P topics required for careers in nursing and other allied health professions. The Second Edition addresses tough physiology topics with new and revised two-page modules and corresponding new Coaching Activities in MasteringA&P(R). Brand-new end-of-chapter study and practice materials include a narrative Study Outline and comprehensive Chapter Review Questions. Module Reviews and Section Reviews, appearing throughout each chapter, give students additional tools for learning. In response to the strong demand from A&P instructors, a brand-new "Visual Anatomy & Physiology Lab Manual "uses the same visual approach and modular organization to help students succeed in the lab.
This program presents a better teaching and learning experience by providing:
Personalized learning with MasteringA&P: Engage students with new "tough topic" Coaching Activities and a wide range of other question and activity types--all automatically graded.A visual approach and modular organization: The two-page modules seamlessly integrate text and visuals to guide students through complex topics and processes with no page flipping. The addition of new content in select modules gives students a better understanding of physiology. Frequent practice: Review questions at the end of each module, section, and chapter encourage and support student practice. In the Second Edition, the Chapter Review includes a new narrative Study Outline and new comprehensive Chapter Review questions. Students can continue practicing with MasteringA&P.Learning outcomes that tightly coordinate with teaching points: The clean one-to-one correspondence between the numbered chapter-opening Learning Outcomes and the numbered two-page modules give students an easy learning path and instructors an easy vehicle for assessment. Streamlined learning in the lab: The new "Visual Anatomy & Physiology Lab Manual"uses the same visual approach and modular organization to help students succeed in the lab.Note: You are purchasing a standalone product; MasteringA&P does not come packaged with this content.

First time listing a school book (because I genuinely read this from cover to cover and made notes)! I had this for my Anatomy & Physiology classes at college and I really enjoyed it. There are a lot of pictures and drawings, diagrams and information related to common complications/illnesses to understand the information more deeply. The only thing I would comment negatively on are some of the diagrams because I found them complicated to look at.

It's a picture book for adults. Would never have look at it if it wasn't a required course.

Decent textbook - not as indepth as the Martini's A&P (not visual).
